Aching and poignant. Fairly standard for the mid 80s, and that’s a good thing….

Ventura County Fairgrounds

How in tarnation is this only 5 votes?!? Always a tough tune to totally pull off live, true, but always a thing of ragged beauty! This was the first since 9/30/76... The coda jam, outro, whatever we want to call it, is gorgeous and lush! Lyrically, Hunter was running on all cylinders here and when they manage to pull it off so sweetly and Jerry let's those crazy fingers go....
Death Don't Have No Mercy

Avalon Ballroom

Whoa. This has become a new favorite.... Everyone should listen. Entire show is ridiculous. Especially the Eleven and the Cryptical Reprise, though the whole show is tight and magnificent and sublime.

Dane County Coliseum

Eyes Of The World

Nassau Coliseum

Jammy! Quick-paced but over 15 minutes long. The jam out of Estimated is excellent, and it continues in that vein... Love the comparison to 11/4/77 at Colgate, which is perhaps my favorite of all the "FAST" EYES!!!
